The Connecticut Center for Nursing Workforce, Inc. (CCNW), in collaboration with the Connecticut Data Collaborative (CTData), is pleased to present the Nursing Education in Connecticut 2022 Data Story. This comprehensive report provides valuable insights into the students and faculty of Registered Nurse (RN) and Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) pre-licensure education programs in Connecticut from January 1, 2022, to December 31, 2022.
Key Findings: - Proactive measures are needed to increase student recruitment into baccalaureate degree nursing programs in the state. Recommended strategies include enhanced marketing and outreach efforts, collaboration with high schools and community colleges to provide pathways for students interested in nursing, offering financial incentives, scholarships, grants, or loan forgiveness programs, and providing mentorship and networking opportunities for prospective students. - Our data shows that work needs to be done to increase the recruitment of Black and Hispanic/Latino nursing program faculty to better match the demographics of the student population, particularly in LPN programs. Recommended strategies include implementing targeted outreach and recruitment programs, offering mentorship and support programs, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment within the nursing program, and instituting fair and unbiased hiring practices to support diverse faculty growth. This report serves as a call to action for the nursing community to address these critical issues and work towards a more diverse and inclusive nursing education environment in Connecticut. You can access the full report on the CCNW and CTData websites for more details. https://www.ctcenterfornursingworkforce.com/data-reports.html https://nursing.ctdata.org/ We deeply appreciate your attention and look forward to working together to improve nursing education in Connecticut.

On November 7, 2023, The Connecticut Center for Nursing Workforce, Inc. (CCNW) held its 43rd Annual RN Student Day that attracted over 830 senior level nursing students from Connecticut Schools and Programs of Nursing. During a morning session, Marcia B. Proto, M.ED, CAS, Executive Director of the CCNW, asked each of the (85) tables to select a Table Captain for an activity. The Table Captain was to engage their peers in open dialogue to identify and capture their thoughts and concerns related to the transition from student nurse to practicing nurse. The student feedback which represents 28% of the current senior level nursing students was a true “eye-opener”. They identified five key areas that students want, and need addressed by both academe and practice related to pre-and post-hire concerns which would help foster a seamless transition to practice for the graduating nursing student and promote retention of the new nurse within the first year. As a result, CCNW will be developing and delivering programming to address these five (5) keys areas to support the leadership of Connecticut’s nursing schools and practice settings via interactive webinars that will be delivered via our professional development “Lunch and Learn Webinar Series” beginning in early 2024. CCNW categorized the student responses and feedback into the following five key areas:  Marcia Proto, Executive Director of the CCNW, represents Connecticut in New Orleans at the National FORUM of State Nursing Workforce Center’s meeting of Executive Directors from across the country.

Ramos’ research examines how user-centered design and technology-driven, behavioral interventions can enhance cardiovascular health equity in sexual minority men of color with HIV and at risk of HIV-related comorbid conditions.

 The numbers leave little doubt that attention and systemic actions are required to address the nursing workforce challenges in Connecticut.
In 2022, Connecticut reported 89,819 active licenses for Registered Nurses, but only about half that number -45,014- are actively employed in a nursing capacity in Connecticut. This is according to a just-completed analysis by the CTData Collaborative and The CT Center for Nursing Workforce, Inc. in September 2023. Nursing is the single largest job category within the field of healthcare. Licensed nurses provide high-quality, safe, and compassionate care within hospitals, long-term care facilities, homecare settings, and schools, as well as within community-based agencies throughout Connecticut. It is imperative that Connecticut adopt data-driven strategies to inform programming and innovative solutions to support a robust and sustainable nursing workforce to meet the healthcare needs of all Connecticut residents. It is easy to assume that with more than 89,000 licensed Registered Nurses (RNs), Connecticut has more than a sufficient number of RNs to handle the increased need for care due to the aging of the Connecticut population and anything else that comes our way. Yet, we now understand, conclusively, that assumption would be wrong. That is not the only alarm bell ringing. The data indicates that of the working RNs totaling 51,154, the age range comprises five generations from ages 20 to 96, with a median age of 47; and that 46% of the working RNs are 50 years and older. The largest age group of working RNs is between 30-39 at 23% or 11,626; followed by 22% between the ages of 50-59; and most alarming, is that only 11% of the total pool of employed RNs are between the ages of 20-29. Connecticut does not have nearly the number of younger nurses needed to replace those who will be retiring within this decade. The Connecticut Center for Nursing Workforce, Inc. (CCNW) was engaged in numerous state and national activities that took place over the past fiscal year. Due to a strong commitment by the CCNW Board of Directors, Council of Deans & Directors, Healthcare Simulation Network of Connecticut (HSNCT), and Staff & Nurse Consultants; CCNW was able to innovate, coordinate, and impact the nursing workforce in Connecticut and across the country.

Free webinar, registration required With the proposal of a historic federal staffing mandate for nursing homes, many are looking at caps on agency staffing to level the playing field for recruiting nurses and aides. However, even if new legislation passes in your state, it won't take effect overnight, nor will it provide a cure-all for the staffing issues plaguing our industry. In fact, introducing rate caps in the midst of a federal staffing mandate may create a whole new set of challenges. In this timely webinar, we will assess the current landscape of rate caps, their potential impact on your facility, and provide actionable strategies for maintaining adequate staffing levels without overpaying agencies. Register for this webinar to learn:
 The Connecticut Center for Nursing Workforce, Inc. (CCNW) is so very proud to introduce the Officers and Members of the CCNW Board of Directors for 2023-24.
This esteemed group of nursing and healthcare professionals is one of the most diverse boards ever to be assembled representing leaders from academe and practice, medicine, non-profit management and seasoned healthcare stakeholders. The professional accomplishments both individually and collectively will help propel the organization forward by identifying organizational goals which will then inform the creation of a new strategic plan for 2023-25. The nominations process was totally transformed to adopt best-practice Board Policies and Practices led by the previous Board Chair, Dr. Lisa Sundean. The process began with conducting a gap analysis of talents, skills and competencies; identifying healthcare and nursing leaders that could fill these gaps; connecting with individuals to apply for open board positions; conducting interviews with candidates to determine competencies and "fit"; as well as, to secure their commitment and active engagement with the CCNW and its mission that is to foster collaborations to ensure a highly educated, diverse, and sustainable nursing workforce to support the healthcare needs of Connecticut residents.
